Leading the way in wheel design and production for over four decades, we pioneered the manufacture of carbon hybrid automotive and monobloc motorcycle wheels, for racing and road use. Today, Dymag Performance Wheels offer a range of carbon, magnesium and alloy wheels for motorcycle racing and road use, as well as our latest creation, the patented BOXSTROM BX Elite® carbon composite automotive wheel. Named in honour of Dymag’s founder Max Boxstrom. The BOXSTROM® carbon barrel, ensures load path optimisation (removing stress raisers) and utilises a sacrificial layer to protect the load path. This is teamed with a high specification forged aluminium centrepiece. The result is a wheel that is up to 40% lighter than forged aluminium and with a 40% lower moment of inertia, improving all elements of driving performance. Drivers will experience faster acceleration, sharper braking, as well as vastly superior road handling; all without compromising safety. Already a huge hit with many leading car manufacturers, the BOXSTROM® is available to the aftermarket as the BX Elite® 7Y and 7X, combining exceptional performance benefits with stunning design. Dymag is expanding into the US aftermarket via a strategic partnership with ADV.1, a subsidiary of the WELD Racing, LLC., and leader in aftermarket performance wheels. Dymag continues to innovate in design, materials and production techniques to further develop our range of performance automotive and motorcycle wheels. In collaboration with our partners, from leading OEMs, the National Composite Centre to global wheel companies, we are already working on the next generation of our products to push the boundaries of design and manufacture to deliver the finest performance wheels available.

LIGHTER | STRONGER | FASTER 60Leader in Carbon Composite Wheels The first carbon composite wheels developed by Dymag were 3 spoke motorcycle wheels, which went on to be used by the Phase One Kawasaki Endurance Team in 1996, winning the World Endurance Championship that year. The company also produced a range of 2 piece carbon wheels with magnesium spokes for Ducati Performance, and the aftermarket, before moving onto the hugely popular one piece CA5, which has been supplied to many racing and aftermarket customers during the past 10 years. There were even wire spoke carbon motorcycle wheels for the Ducati Monster and KTM Superduke. In 2004 Dymag launched the 9 spoke Dymag Carbon Composite wheel, based on a hybrid design, initially with magnesium and later with a forged aluminium spoke system. Dymag Carbon Hybrid Wheels were used on a wide range of applications and OEM fitments to the Koenigsegg CCX, Mosler and other niche sports car manufacturers. DYMAG LEAD THE WORLD ON AUTO AND Over 10 years later, the BOXSTROM® represents MOTO CARBON WHEELS the next generation in composite wheel Dymag began developing carbon composite motorcycle technology, the lightest, stiffest and strongest wheels in 1994, designed to meet the fatigue and carbon wheel ever made by Dymag. durability standards for street use in aftermarket and racing, unlike any carbon wheels that had gone before.
